Tea On The Green CAL – Part Seven

Welcome to Part 7 of the Tea On The Green CAL! We can’t believe we are nearly at the end of our first CAL already. We love seeing all of your WIPs so please keep sharing through facebook and instagram with #KnitcrafthqTeaOnTheGreen

It’s not too late to join the Facebook group as the pattern will remain on the blog for you to follow.

Sl st – Slipstitch Beg – beginning RS – Right Side WS – Wrong Side Pixel – ch3 and 3tr worked into a ch3 space Pattern Notes ** Please note, everybody has different tension, you may need to do less pixels in width or more, and less pixels in height or more, depending on your tension. The width of this block needs to be the same width as your smaller blocks please see diagram at the bottom of this pattern** This block is worked using the C2C technique, where we start in one corner and work along the diagonal to the other corner, which is why it is called corner-to-corner crochet. With this pattern we are going to make a rectangular block. Initially we will be working in two directions, A and B, until A is 11 pixels 6 inches in height depending on your tension, and B is 83 pixels 54 inches in width again depending on your tension. Your 54 Inches equates to the height of 2 x 12 inch blocks, 4 x 6 inch blocks and 6 inches to cover one corner.

Block G Colourways as follows; Block Colourway Number of Makes G B 4 Method Using yarn B and a 4mm hook Row one (RS) Ch6 (counts as ch3 and 1tr), 1tr in the fourth ch from the hook and in each of the next 2ch to the end. Turn work (1 pixel has been created) Row two (WS) Ch6 (counts as ch3 and 1tr), 1tr in fourth ch from the hook and in each of the next 2ch (another pixel created), sl st in the space created by the ch3 at the top of the pixel of row 1, ch3, 3tr in same ch3 space as the sl st, turn work (2 pixels created)

Row three Ch6 (counts as ch3 and 1tr), 1 tr in fourth ch from the hook and in each of the next 2 ch to complete another pixel, sl st into the ch3 space at the top of the last pixel from Row two, ch3, 3tr in same ch3 space as the sl st, sl st in ch3 space at the top of the next pixel, ch3, 3tr in same ch3 space as the sl st, turn work. (3 pixels)

Row four Ch6 (counts as ch3 and 1tr), 1tr in fourth ch from the hook and in each of the next 2ch to complete another pixel, sl st in the ch3 space at the top of the last pixel worked from previous row, *ch3, 3tr in same ch3 space as sl st, sl st in ch3 space at the top of the next pixel; rep from * until you have worked a sl st in the ch3 sp of the last block of the previous row, ch3, 3tr in the same ch3 sp as the sl st, turn work. (4 pixels) Rows five to eleven Repeat row 4. (11 pixels).

Row twelve (WS) Sl st into first 3 tr, sl st into ch3 space, *ch3, (3tr in the same ch3 space as the sl st, sl st in ch3 space at the top of the next pixel) rep from * until you have worked a sl st in the ch3 sp of the last pixel of the previous row, ch3, 3tr in the same ch3 sp as the sl st, turn work. (11 pixels)

Row thirteen Ch6 (counts as ch3 and 1tr), 1tr in fourth ch from the hook and each of the next 2ch to complete another pixel, sl st in the ch3 sp at the top of the last pixel worked from previous row, *ch3, 3tr in same ch3 space as sl st, sl st in ch3 sp at the top of the next pixel), rep from * until you have worked sl st in the ch3 sp of the last block of the previous row. Rep rows 12 and 13 until the block has 83 pixels across 54 inches (depending on your tension! You may need to do more or less) Repeat row 12 until you have one pixel left, sl st to the end and fasten off.
